Look for a small button somewhere underneath typically around the edge bottom edge of your dashboard or where the flashing LED is you need to hold that in while the key is on for like 10 seconds and that will change the mode
all back seats are either screwed down or hooked in. you need to use a little muscle and lift up your back seat to see which is which. there is no other way to gain entry to your trunk.Trust me Ive locked my keys in my trunk too. Now i have a hidden spare to my door and trunk. GOOD LUCK
I believe that this is to protect valuables left in the boot when parking the vehicle. I read here that there is access some where in/ near the glove box but I cannot remember exactly what it was . Surf the net under Jaguar valet problems and you may get the answer.
I assume the car is in valet mode,,,,just take your master key and open the trunk with it by inserting the key anc turning it one time...This will deactivate the valet mode...Let me know. ..
Try inserting the key into the drivers door lock and try centrally locking and unlocking all the doors a few times. If this does not reset the valet function try using the key in the drivers door lock and pressing the fob at the same time as locking and unlocking the doors. Even with valet mode engaged you should be able to access the trunk by physically inserting the key into the trunk lock.
There are Valet keys (often with a green knob) that will only unlock
the front doors and the ignition but not the glove box nor
boot/trunk.
When either the front door locks or the console
button is pressed, all the doors should lock. Likewise, when either front
door is unlocked, all the doors fuel filler lid and if selected, the
boot will also unlock.
Boot lock has three positions. Unlocked
to the left, automatic with the doors in the center, always locked to
the right. Simply remove the key in what ever position you desire.
The
locks can get confused and not work correctly. Simply sit in the
car and manually lock all the doors. That will usually get the
locking module sane again.
Just bought my 98 a week ago....from what I can figure out....the valet mode disables the inside button....until the trunk is opened by the key. From what I understand also....there is a valet key....and an owner key. (I saw the differences online this week) which also ties in with valet mode.
I have seen this before, each time i have seen it i have to reprogram the valet key. This needs to be dont at the dealership, make sure you bring the master key otherwise they cant program the valet key.
